Frequently Asked Questions
DHS-CBP
Fitness Test Protocol
Before The Exam:
Q1. When a DHS fitness only exam has been scheduled with my facility, what should I expect?
A1. A fitness only exam is given when a candidate has completed the PFT1 Candidate Health History Questionnaire. Prior to the exam the questionnaire must be reviewed and signed by both the candidate and test administrator. If candidate answers “yes” to any questions on the Candidate Health History Questionnaire, the candidate must also provide the completed Medical Provider Statement Form. The DHS fitness only exam no longer includes an EKG with interpretation or blood pressure reading.
Q2. Will I receive the paperwork at my facility, or should I expect the candidate to bring it with them?
A2. All paperwork will be sent to the candidate via email once their exam is scheduled. The candidate is responsible for providing their paperwork.
Q3. What happens if I don’t receive the paperwork, or the candidate forgets to bring it with them?
A3. Contact CHS at 866-493-0476 option 3 and speak with a representative to have the required paperwork sent to your location.
Q4: What if I do not have the proper CD to conduct the fitness test?
A4. Contact CHS at 866-493-0476 option 3 to have a replacement CD shipped to your facility. Audio recordings for temporary use can be found at dhscbpfitness
Q5. If the candidate answers “yes” on the Candidate Health History Questionnaire, what steps should I take from there?
A5: In order to proceed with the fitness testing, the candidate must provide a completed Medical Provider Statement Form. If the candidate does not have the completed Medical Provider Statement Form, please indicate “Failed to Provide Completed Medical Provider Form” on the Fitness Failure Summary and send to CHS via email or fax immediately. The candidate MUST then be referred back to CHS at 866-493-0476 Option 3 for further direction.
Q6: The candidate did not sign the “Candidate Waiver and Release of Liability Form” provided, but they signed the facility consent form. Is this an okay substitute?
A6: No. It is VERY important that all candidates MUST sign the “Candidate Waiver and Release of Liability Form” that is provided with the exam paperwork, BEFORE the fitness exam is administered.
During The Test
Q1: If a candidate fails a portion of the fitness test, should I continue on to the other sections?

Q2: Are women allowed to do female modified push-ups during the fitness test?
A2: No. The protocol requires every candidate to be tested with the standard “proper-form” push-up.
Q3. Should I fail the candidate during the step test if he cannot change his/her feet?
A3. No. The candidate is not required to alternate feet during the step test.
Q4. Can I give the candidate another chance?
A4. No. All fitness testing requires prior authorization from CHS. If there are any issues or concerns, please call Comprehensive Health Services at 866-493-0476.
Q4. What happens if a candidate injures him/herself during testing?
A4.Please complete the “Pre-Employment Fitness Test Injury/Accident/Incident Report Form” and forward to CHS immediately following the exam.
